Answer:

A. $2.00

B. $26.99

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 x 49.99 = 24.995

49.99 - 24.995 = 24.995

0.08 x 24.995 = 1.9996 and round to the nearest hundredth

24.995 + 1.9996 = 26.9946

round to the nearest hundredth

Answer:

Part a: 1.9996

Part b: 26.9946

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1:

Find the unit rate (1% of 49.99). You should get 0.4999. Then, multiply 0.4999 by 50. You should get 24.995.

STEP 2:

Find the unit rate of 24.995. You should get 0.24995. Then multiply 0.24995 by 8. <u>You should get 1.9996 (answer for part a).</u>

<u />

STEP 3:

Add 1.9996 to 24.995. <u>You should get 26.9946 (answer to part b).</u>

What is the area of this figure? <br>​
polet [3.4K]
First, calculate the area of the square, which is 25

next, find the area of one half of the triangle by multiplying 2.5 and 4 (10), then dividing that by 2 (5).

since the two half’s of the triangle are symmetrical, just add 5 and 5 to get 10.

add the area of the triangle (10) and the square (25) to get the total area.

the answer should be 35

hope this helps!
